I'm having a problem with my Firefox 102.0.1 in a relatively fresh Ubuntu 22.04 installation. I cannot get ANY system dialog to open when I try to save a page going to File | Save and/or <CTRL+S>. To make it even worst for my need, I still cannot get the system dialog from coming up when I click on a button to browse for a file I want to upload to the page. No bueno!

I tried running the code from w3schools here, both from the "Try it yourself" feature and locally from an HTML file with the code below, but nothing.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
     <head>
          <title>Dialog Test</title>
     </head>
     <body>
          <h3>My Firefox will NOT show the system dialog when I will the button below:</h3>
          <form action="/action_page.php">
            <label for="myfile">Click Me!:</label>
            <input type="file" id="myfile" name="myfile"><br><br>
          </form>
     </body>
</html>

I'm very frustrated! I don't know where else to look! I have searched Google and here off course. I'm probably missing something extremely simple, I Just can't figure it out.

Your help will be extremely appreciated it. Thank you in advance!

I was able to resolve this issue by removing the snap version of Firefox and installing the traditional deb package. I followed the steps here https://askubuntu.com/a/1404401/124466 as suggested by Archisman Panigrahi in his comment above. Thank you Archisman!
